The Rome Opera House cancelled its decision, reported in the October newsletter, to dismiss all of the institution’s 182 musicians and choir members. An agreement signed between unions and management, and approved by 97% of the staff, saves the jobs of the Rome Opera House artists. The Opera House wanted to lay off its entire in-house orchestra in order to cut back on costs, which was met with national and international outrage. The agreement makes provisions for a saving of €1.5 million, but saves the jobs.
